Four very scarce albumen stereoview photographs visually capturing the Gallery of Fine Arts at the historic 1873 Universal Exhibition of Vienna which was intended to mark the silver anniversary of Emperor Franz-Joseph I and far surpassed any of the others in area with 233 hectares featuring 53000 exhibitors from 35 countries in 194 pavilions. Featuring the first appearance of the emerging Meiji-era Japan along with many pavilions promoting the world’s progress in industry art education and agriculture. The massive rotunda featured 70000 square feet and a huge number of exhibits including the clocks seen here in the photos. Also featured are the Belgian Moroccan Jury Pavilion and the Swedish. Unfortunately the Exhibition lost massively due to a cholera outbreak in Vienna and the stock market crash of 1873 9 days after the Fair opened. Still although losing the modern equivalent of $ 200 million and severely depressing the local finances vendors were pleased and 7 million did attend the Fair. Klosz 1844-1913 was an exceptionally successful Viennese photographer whose postcards CDV’s and albums documented Austro-Hungarian events. Kramer 1835-1892 was an early and longtime noted photographer in Vienna from 1858 until his death and was the co-founder and director of the Vienna Photographers Association the organization which shot over 2200 different images for the 1873 Vienna Fair; Frankenstein 1843-1918 photographed landscapes and architecture in and around Vienna and across the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
